Pinelopi Sioni

Pinelopi Sioni is an embodiment guide of yoga, meditation, and the Alexander Technique, integrating trauma-informed principles and polyvagal theory into her work. In her over fifteen years of practice, she has guided countless groups in connecting with their bodies, emotions, and deeply held beliefs. Her work is grounded in Ahimsa, or non-violence and the concept of allowing what is present to simply be. She believes that transformation happens through allowing, compassion, understanding, and seeing. Pinelopi rejects the notions of pushing through pain, forcefully changing oneself, or labeling any emotion as “bad.” She views emotions as messengers that, once welcomed and listened to, naturally move on to their next destination. In 2013, she welcomed a wonderful daughter into her life. Since then, she has been exploring ways to connect the intricate emotional worlds of children with the beauty of meditation. To her surprise, she discovered that she could effectively use a simplified version of RAIN with her daughter as early as age three when guiding her through the technique. Her dream is to help people of all ages connect with and express their emotions more easily, fostering a world with less unresolved grief and pain. Pinelopi lives in Berlin, where she runs her own studio and offers retreats, workshops and classes.
